Its a great show but its much more realistic than those. So therefore much more language, sex, violence etc. It'd be more comparable with things like goodfellas in some ways

yes to both of these, but Haido loves the wire and hates CSI, Criminal Minds etc which made me question if my dad would like it.

yeah that would put me off because i dont think he'd like that, in CSI they never really show the people getting killed just the aftermath and my dad gives out when me and my sister curse....

He'd probably like Mad Men too.

While I think The Wire's the best thing I've ever seen I'm not sure if the old folks would enjoy it as much as we would.

HBO shows are a bit more hard hitting. i've still yet to get the chance to get round to the wire but i can imagine the language and violence would be along similar lines to Oz, and whether a parent would enjoy all the drug related stuff too, i'd doubt my own dad would like it
